We’re racing to connect all of Europe with high-speed internet. But connectivity alone doesn’t close the gap. Millions lack the skills to leverage this infrastructure for better jobs, health, and opportunities. We risk creating a divide between the connected and skilled, and the rest.
How can we better integrate skills development into our infrastructure projects?
Could treating basic digital literacy like a fundamental utility – readily available to all citizens – be the key? Imagine a ‘Digital Literacy as a Service’ (DLaaS): quality-assured, accessible training on demand. Should this be a core public service, funded and scaled across Europe alongside infrastructure?
What would it take to make universal DLaaS a reality? Share your vision! 👇
